    Language model multimorbidity score predicts mortality in adults

    Across eight external cohorts, the score yielded C-indices of 0.67 to 0.86, outperforming recalibrated conventional comorbidity indices by absolute gains of 0.12 to 0.21.Across eight external cohorts, the score yielded C-indices of 0.67 to 0.86, outperforming recalibrated conventional comorbidity indices by absolute gains of 0.12 to 0.21.
